Famous quotes containing the words individual, classic and/or long:
“There is one mind common to all individual men. Every man is an inlet to the same and to all of the same.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“There is a distinction to be drawn between true collectors and accumulators. Collectors are discriminating; accumulators act at random. The Collyer brothers, who died among the tons of newspapers and trash with which they filled every cubic foot of their house so that they could scarcely move, were a classic example of accumulators, but there are many of us whose houses are filled with all manner of things that we “can’t bear to throw away.””
—Russell Lynes (1910–1991)
“How long she stayed I cannot tell;
But when she felt this perfidy,
She marched across the floor of hell;
And all the damned stood up to see.”
—John Davidson (1857–1909)
